"Self-Level Suspension Inactive"

Sooo I just got my X5's oil leak fixed which ended up being the alternator bracket gasket leaking. Got it back from the shop and I thought all was good! Was driving it home and i get the error "Self-Level Suspension Inactive" and wasn't TOO worried because I have gotten this before after having the car on the lift and it normally resets itself either from driving or overnight. Well it didn't, the front of the car is basically slammed down which I assume is the airbags not filled. The car is derivable but VERY VERY VERY BUMPY, I've had to drive it the last two days because I haven't had another option right now. I asked the mechanic who repaired my oil leak and he said when he test drove it that warning was not on and the green light on the level indicator was working but when he pressed up or down the car didn't go anywhere.

So now I have the cars nose basically ridding on the tires with a bumpy ride and the leveling indicator isn't showing anything. I've tried so far is looking at both fuses for the air suspension and the 30 amp and 7.5 amp are both fine and I also tried unplugging the battery and seeing if that would reset the computer and let the airbags go up with no success. Anyone have any other ideas? I am going to be calling my mechanic again tomorrow and asking if he can take a look at the airbags to see if they are leaking but I don't think they are seeing as the pump itself isn't turning on at all.
